He said he's fine! Just tired. And his arm got fixed.

[tothelight]

That's not exactly answering the question.

Ah. Well! He looks like he did when we first met!

Aaaaand how did he look when you first met?

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

I think it uh. Will come. Back?

[tothelight]

...

I'm hoping that's cause you remember it doing that. His eye. Of course it'd be either that eye or his arm, wouldn't it.

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

Yeah. Surgeon's like that.

You know. The first thought that came was about getting it back for him, but...

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

I'd never let you go.

[tothelight]

I know, I know. It's that, too, and... and that I don't know if he'd want it back exactly.

It's just. Is it weird? Thinking he might be happier without it?

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

...it's not weird. But at the same time, I wonder what it's like having a whole world and then only a half.

...claude?

[tothelight]

Sorry.

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

Why?

[tothelight]

I dunno. ...mostly taking having two eyes for granted, I guess.

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

Hey! I'm okay like I am, Claude. This is me.

You ever wish it were different?

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

I can't really imagine it.
